Before that discussion, however, Chaz speaks on a cool rogue-“lite” game, Mike briefs us on his recent visit to Disneyland and California Adventure, and Josh reports on some Xbox One news he gained from Comic-Con.

Thank you to all who have stuck around with us to this momentous occasion.

For your troubles, we give you deep discussion on the mathematical properties of “roundness”, obscure forest arrow battles between famous celebrities, a non-discussion about a recent DLC, and all the rest of the things that happened that escape the poster’s mind right now. It’s a slimmer-than-usual ~90 minute discussion, as well, so get comfortable, turn up the volume, and dive in.

Activities included, but were not limited to, checking out a new board game, Kickstarted almost a year ago, that recently shipped.

Our main topic, however, is a lengthy breakdown of the upcoming AAA consoles, the Xbone and Playstellogram 4. We piece together some of the controversies surrounding E3, and go over specs and game exclusives, just for you. Cuz we like you.

The Escort Mission discusses things going in its life this week, which I don’t think anyone everyone saw coming. Among muchas otras cosas, Jonathan Blow’s love for Starseed Pilgrim is investigated, an ABC Family show prompts some deaf culture conversation, a few more movie reviews are added to the pile, and we check in on some of Kickstarter’s latest funds.

Yes, topics such as these, and more!, are bantered about in less than a smooth hour and fifty minutes, all compressed via Motion Pictures Experts Group, Audio Layer 3.

It is here! Friend of the show Dave, and iOS game developer, joins us in our roundtable this time.

TressFX is new and different and awesome, and the recently released Tomb Raider employs it on the PC. Chaz and Josh checked it out and give us their thoughts. We also discuss the SimCity debacle, taking massively open online courses, a few recent women in tech issues, and a bunch more movies to check out. This, and many other things, await you on this week’s TEM podcast.

A bunch of games are mentioned and discussed, and FTL may be one of them (again). Other, non-game-related topics come up, as well, like ya do. In other words, this show is much like the others, in that it’s awesome and radical. Enjoy!

Chaz bought a car and found it shady but easier than in years past. Mike played a number of casual games and found them enjoyable. Josh watched the presidential debate and found it crazy-making.

A quick mid-week ep. to make up for missing our regular weekend cast-a-thon. (By which I mean, a 2 hour show like all the others. The best laid plans, and all that.) Also, Josh wins the dice roll yet again.

You’re not going to believe this but we hardly mention Mass Effect and Fez, and only in the context of other games! Chaz is playing some classic PlayStation exclusives, Mike is on the Penny-Arcade tip (Penny-Arcade Sucks!), and Josh thinks Braid is Best Game Ever. Also, have you ever tried to describe a specific Braid puzzle? It turns out that’s challenging.

Guess what? TEMcrew like Fez and we talk about it more. It’s the last time, for SURE this time. Mike played a buncha crazy demos, most of which he didn’t like. Chaz listened to some music. Josh watched The Dark Knight for the first time, and he got a Nook. (Which shows you how in tune with monetizing this thing we are. Ya couldn’t have bought a Kindle, dude?)

We talk some more Fez, we talk some more Mass Effect MP. Crazy stuff is happening in EVE Online. Also, is it Min/Maxing or Max/Minning? And is Tetris one of the best games ever?

Our second podcast episode is in the can, and while it looks like it’s coming out on the same day as the first, it’s really not. In fact, nearly a week separates each episode! We just figured it made more sense to release both at the same time since while they may have been done then and then, we’re going official now, so, yeah. Two for the price of one, and all.

Our focus this time is a bit less narrow than our first episode as we split our time between the recent release of Fez, exploring the good and bad parts of DLC, and trying to reason with Tom Auxier’s Defense of Boring. Throughout the podcast honest and sometimes harsh opinions arise, which is when the real discussion begins, no?

We continue to have three amazing, auditory-pleasing ways to get the podcast:

iTunes Store direct-linking/subscribing will be another option very soon.

The Escort Mission has finally gotten their act together and made their first podcast episode, and it is a massive one. Join Mike, Josh, and Chaz, if you would, in their seriously light-hearted audio-based discussion.

The topic of the day is Mass Effect 3 in all of its glory, which includes our thoughts on the game itself, its place in the trilogy, and the much ballyhooed ending. Thus, spoilers definitely abound. We also introduce two features called “Not My Thing”, where particular idiosyncrasies get admitted, and “Best Game Ever”, where a game is chosen to be nominated and defended as one of the all-time greats.

We have three great, nutrient-rich avenues to get at our recorded think tank:

As soon as iTunes approves of our audio roundtable, we’ll be able to link it more Apple-like. However, you can do it manually right now by just using option #2 and adding it to iTunes’s Podcasts section via the Advanced->Subscribe to Podcast menu option.

We hope you enjoy our stream-of-consciousness conversation and check in with us each week (that’s the plan) for a new episode.
